He wants to stay in France for at least one more season. Sensible boy with a good team of advisers
Great idea. He would instead stay in France or go to the premier league. He does not seem interested in the mega money. He just wants a place where he could find fulfilment and that is great indeed. I pray a premier league team would snap him up. We dont want Italy please.
He know he will do well in the Premier League more than anywhere else according to his styles of play. Liverpool will suit him better. Imo.
His style would fit perfect like a lock and key with liverpool dynamic a vertical fast pace playing which leads to pulling mark for more clear open space with quick movement for him to beat defenders back front and have open spots to just tap shoot head trick fake movement to pull defense one way and leave him open with the fast dynamic playing style leaves him as a (9) with ATLEAST 4 EASY OPTIONS AND BREAD WINNER OPTIONS ADVANTS FOR A FORWARD LIKE HIM NOW IF HE’S DOING GOOD AT NAPOLI WELL LIVERPOOL WILL EXPLODE TOGETHER WITH THIS GREAT(9) and easily 20 GOALS PER SEASON JUST TO START ONCE HE GETS ACCUSTOMED YO EPL and Liverpool he will have 30 and up GOALS PER SEASON IN ALL COMPETITIONS AND WHEN I MEAN 30 AND UP I REALLY MEAN 30 AND UPSky’S THE LIMIT.
